'''Factitious disorder imposed on self''' ('''FDIS'''), sometimes referred to as '''Munchausen syndrome''', is a complex mental disorder where individuals play the role of a sick patient to receive some form of psychological validation, such as attention, sympathy, or physical care. Patients with FDIS intentionally falsify or induce signs and symptoms of illness, trauma, or abuse to assume this role. These actions are performed consciously, though the patient may be unaware of the motivations driving their behaviors. | '''Factitious disorder imposed on self''' ('''FDIS'''), sometimes referred to as '''Munchausen syndrome''', is a complex mental disorder where individuals play the role of a sick patient to receive some form of psychological validation, such as attention, sympathy, or physical care.
